using the mysql fulltext stunt within a php page to run a kinda search within my db. To be specific, here goes the query:
Code:
select *, match(url, title, comment) against ('movies') as score from dir 
where match(url, title, comment) against ('movies') limit $somevariable, 10
using mysql_num_rows however, the result count returns 0 but when i ran the query through phpMyadmin, it query returns 1 result. i went back to my script and used dis: (to see if a result was returned despite mysql_num_rows returning 0)
Code:
while(list($url, $title, $comment, $subdir, $hits) = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
echo "<a href='hits.php?u=".base64_encode('[URL unfurl="true"]http://'.$link)."'[/URL] target=_blank>$title</A> 
$comment <TT>&raquo;<A href='$dir/$subdir'>$dir/$subdir</A> hits: $hits</TT><BR>\n";
}
but still got no reslut returned...wat could be wrong?
 
Insufficient amount of information for a meaningful answer.

Have you echoe'd out your SQL statement from the script?
Have you pasted that statement into PMA and observe the result?
 
PHPMyAdmin is often abbreviated into the acronym PMA.
